Konoha's Shiranui Genma

"Boom"

A few seconds after the three of them entered the Fire Temple, the steel door behind them closed again.

Di Lu stopped silently, turned around after a while and said, "Asma, you go around the temple, I want to see the teacher first."

"Okay." Asma replied.

Dilu then left alone.

Shiranui Genma followed Asuma and wandered around the temple.

Compared with other places in the Country of Fire, the architectural style of the Fire Temple is quite peculiar. Most of them are clumsy in shape, and many of them are stained with wear and tear. They are full of the vicissitudes of time, and they look very old at first glance.

In fact it is.

Although the monks of the Fire Temple can be regarded as ninjas and have some masters from time to time, they have always adhered to the traditional concept of staying aloof from the world and rarely had any entanglements with the outside world.

Therefore, whether it is architecture, culture or living habits, the Fire Temple maintains a relatively original style.

For example, in addition to its architectural style, the Fire Temple is also one of the few places in the Fire Kingdom that never uses electricity.

Although electricity has been used for a long time, the monks of the Fire Temple seem to turn a blind eye to it, and they still use candles for lighting.

The two of them were walking in the temple, and Shiranui Genma said: "Where is the Thousand-Armed Bodhi?"

Senju Bodhi is a giant tree that has grown here for nearly a thousand years. It is the most famous thing in the Temple of Fire and recognized as the "No. Wonderful Tree" in the ninja world.

The "second strange tree" Wutun tree recognized by most people is made from cuttings of its branches.

Needless to say, the wonders of the Wudun Tree are that the materials produced by it are used in medicines, spells, ninja tools and other fields. The Wudun Paper, which detects chakra properties, is one of the most famous processed products of the Wudun Tree.

Although the Wudun Tree has so many wonderful uses, it still seems insignificant in front of the Thousand-Armed Bodhi.

Many high-end potions, charms, and ninja tools are inseparable from Senju Bodhi's materials, such as the psychic contract, Orochimaru's chakra supplement, and several of Tsunade's antidotes.

Some people in the Land of Winds have always used this to despise Tsunade, thinking that the reason why Tsunade was able to destroy the poison technique of the hidden sand village was entirely due to the magic of Senju Bodhi.

Senju Bodhi also has the power to suppress tailed beasts. It was precisely for this reason that Naruto was sent to the Fire Temple by Konoha not long after he was born.

In addition, Qianshou Bodhi also occupies an unusual position in the history of the Fire Kingdom.

According to records, the first Hokage Senju Hashirama had an epiphany under the Senju Bodhi tree, thus starting a legendary life.

The name "Thousand-Armed Bodhi" was determined because of the Thousand-Armed Pillars.

"Follow me." Asma said with a smile, and immediately walked away.

Shiranui Genma hurriedly followed, but the two of them wandered around the numerous temples in the courtyard and got a little lost. They couldn't find the Thousand-Armed Bodhi for a long time.

Shiranui Genma: "Asuma, didn't you spend some time in the Land of Fire before?"

Asma was a little embarrassed: "Well, even though I say that, it's been a long time since I've been here, and the road here is so winding."

He looked around and then noticed a thin old monk passing by not far away. His eyes immediately lit up and he ran over quickly.

"Master of Zhongjue"

The thin old monk held a string of rosary beads in his hand. He raised his head when he heard the words, blinked, and said hesitantly: "You are."

"I'm Asma, don't you remember?" Asma said awkwardly.

The old monk, known as Master Zhongjue, seemed to have remembered something and suddenly said: "It's Asuma. Didn't you and Jilu go to Kamikawa to be guardian ninja?"

Asuma smiled unnaturally: "We have withdrawn from the Guardian Ninja."

"Why?" Master Zhongjue seemed to be unaware of Daming Mansion's affairs, and asked with a puzzled look on his face.

Asuma did not explain, but pointed to Shiranui Genma and asked, "Master Zhongjue, this is a friend of mine and Dilu. We want to see the Thousand-Armed Bodhisattva, but I'm a bit confused." We’re on the wrong side of the road, could you please point me to it?”

"Go out through that door, then turn left," said Master Zhongjue.

"Thank you very much."

Asuma immediately led Shiranui Genma, following the route given by Master Zhongkaku, and made another series of twists and turns in the temple.

Walking on the road, Shiranui Genma asked: "Who was the master just now?"

Asma said: "Master Zhongjue is Dilu's teacher, and I have also consulted him."

Shiranui Genma was startled: "Isn't Jilu's teacher the abbot of the Fire Temple, Master Kukai?"

Asma explained: "Master Zhongjue is also the teacher of Dilu, but he only teaches Buddhism and does not teach Ninja."

Shiranui Genza nodded.

Soon, a strange fragrance came from the front. When he looked up, he could already see the green silhouette of a giant tree.

The two turned a few more doors, and a giant tree tens of meters high came into view.

In a wide lawn, Thousand-Handed Bodhi stands quietly, with lush branches and leaves, as green as jasper, towering tens of meters high, and the trunk looks very thick, showing its thousands of years of accumulation.

Among the lawns, many monks sat on the ground, all of them closed their eyes and chanted Buddhist scriptures quietly.

The sound of chanting Buddhist sutras in low voice and the fragrant breath of Thousand-Armed Bodhi complement each other, making people involuntarily feel a sacred feeling.

"Hold on."

The two were about to move forward, but two young monks suddenly reached out to stop them: "Outsiders stop."

Shiranui Xuanjian and Asma had no choice but to stop on the outside, separated by tens of meters, watching the Thousand-Handed Bodhi in the middle of the grass from a distance.

"How do you feel?" Asuma asked.

Shiranui Genma looked at the majestic giant tree, nodded for a while, and couldn't help but said: "It is indeed the Thousand-Armed Bodhi."
